Using Social Media as Your Primary (or Only) Link Building Tactic Probably Won't Work - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: October 02, 2015
I am not a big User of Facebook, Why? I looked what people are doing here. Every day I am in a train for 2 hours. hundrets of people with me, a lot of them on Facebook. Thy scroll down the feed and like or dont like shares.
Why do they like? Because the Image is great. Did they click on a post - no, a lot of people dont leave Facebook to read something. They are liking images and headlines, Not great, readable posts.
And me? The same!
My social behavior: Went to FB, Twitter, G+ - Retweet thinks with good images or headlines, Fav what I may want to read later (and often I dont). Like posts with great images or headlines, without clicking it. Dont think about reading, I share for a "read later" reminder (and often I dont). Equal in Google Plus.
Ive done my social job - shared or liked or ignored.
I linked to pages I found on social Networks - but that was the goal. I wanted to write a post in a blog, searched everywhere to great stuff wich is related and linked to it. I searched on google and Google Plus, Twitter and Facebook. I linked to stuff I found - but the reason was not: Hey thats great, I write about and link to it. The reason was: I have written, are there some related Posts I can link to - lets search.
I never left one Social Network and thought: Wow! I have to link to that stuff. And that in our business... Why should other people think that???
A Picture of You: Results of the 2015 Moz Blog Reader SurveyBlog Post: September 21, 2015
SEO Marketing Manager - why not - call me that way!
I do not really care which words my job title has - but 2 of them are in it.
I think the posts are about right when:
- all my questions are answered
- I don't have read a lot of "not so important information"
lt is hard to get that contentlength for everybody. But 18 mentioned shorter posts? Hmmm .... Size is not everything I thought value is what we read, not count of words. Any examples for blogposts with "to much size" ?? I think that could help MOZ to optimize the post length, wordcount, size :)
Like all Data, thx Trevor
The Impact of Queries, Long and Short Clicks, and Click Through Rate on Google's Rankings - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: September 11, 2015
I nearly allways agree with u gianluca.
it is impossible how much closer optimization goes to human beings.
8 years back I was a lot closer to the search engine than to the user. I started to believe in that "User" stuff. I see what I do in SearchEngines, what I click. And know I see what optimization for User Experience brings in rankings for a lot of sites. And like rand said, why not optimize for higher CTR, longer clicks...
Clean Your Site's Cruft Before It Causes Rankings Problems - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: September 04, 2015
Kevin that's right, I think Barry Schwarz has a lot of posts with less words on seroundtable, but it often is a solution or answer. He has some trouble with google caused by the mass of content I am sure, I wanted to say - if you have those sites with a small but great answer, you should make the visitors see something other they are interested and will click on. Low visit time isn't equal low quality - thats true :)
How to Use Content Marketing to Growth Hack Your Way Into the European MarketsBlog Post: September 01, 2015
As german it is a pretty interesting point of view - how you do content marketing for me, if you are not from here :)
European users don't like way to catch them with landing page and later "future communication will be in English" - 110% Agree
Avoid computer translators at all - just a few examples - when Matt Cutts went on leave - the Bing Translator (used by twitter, i never visit bing) told me "Matt Cutts is fired". Google Translator also has a lot of funny translator fails. It's better to translate it by yourselfe than not to try it and let a machine do translations.
European users want to get local phone for support - right, but mail is also ok, when the answer is coming ASAP. Mobile internet is expensive and not everywhere possible - good to have phone support.

Case Study: Can You Fake Blog Post Freshness?Blog Post: September 09, 2015
One of the best youmoz posts I read in last few month - maybe just because I simply love all kinds of tests. I tried that in an wordpress blog (early 2013) in a "no-freshness-needed"-topic (thats what I thought) and the effect on a lot of posts was an equal lift of visitors. But I think more posts, more blogs, more topics are needed. Just use 5-6 posts is (like u said) bring them closer to the start page...
How Much Keyword Repetition is Optimal - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: August 21, 2015
Well, thats what I do - as an SEO I know what I do, with MOZbar running in overlay I get a pretty good Idea why the sites rank here. But my wife starts to stop clicking EMDs and Question-Repeats and she is far away from an search nerd =)
I saw that and asked: Why you don't click that #1 result? And she said: This site repeats my question and I am searching an answer.
they do what people want to hear. what seems easy and clear to solve.
How many tools say, that the number of links are important? Or that W3C matters? A lot of tools say Keyword Density is the faktor, some of them use WDFxIDF like onpage org - what you can test 4 free here: https://en.onpage.org/product/free/ (i would say one of the best onpage tools atm)
First, I do remember Heman and Skeletor ;)
I really like to see Google SERPs with no Exact Match Keywords in title and description. I am more likely to klick on the other pages, because the idea "they must have done something really good". Just like URLs - I am more satisfied with the results, when I ignore the EMDs in the SERPs. That is not allways the truth, there must be some really good EMDs out there - but the most EMDs are not that great - that leads me to ignore them all.
For everyone new in SEO - it is pretty easy to overoptimize. Like you said its a high risk for a tiny benefit.
It's impressive how often people think it's good to repeat a target search query as often as possible. I simply ask these people this Question: Why should Google show me the site wich repeats my query most, when I am searching for the best answer? TGIF

How to Create Boring-Industry Content that Gets SharedBlog Post: April 30, 2015
Your point 1 is a great hint, it is unbeleivable how many people exists, wich think they do something because it's a job to earn money - that's the reason. No - thats a result and not why I do something. So the best salesman couldn't think it's boring. He could tell you a thing or two, not so boring things i guess...
The Incredible Shrinking SERP - 2015 EditionBlog Post: April 09, 2015
I am with you, the changes are opportunities for several websites.
I am not that much against these google changes, when I usually do a search (private one, not a job based search) I only scroll down, when Adwords ar on Top (mostly because adwords are not that often optimized, seems like noone heard about landing pages - usually I get a link to the home-page and there is nothing what answers my question). So if a result has only 9 or 7 Results, but News or Images in a snippet, I would prefer that as google user.
7 Days After Mobilegeddon: How Far Did the Sky Fall?Blog Post: April 22, 2015
and when we are on major changes - i cant thumb up when i am scrolled down into the comment area. I just can give a thumb up when i am in post area.
So - I also cant click any of these buttons --------------------->
when I am down here in comment section. A change of the z-index helped, but it went a bit to the right. Latest Chrome version.
I also have some sites, where I still work on a mobile update, one wich has a huge amount of mobile traffic. I am interested in
- how much traffic they will lose
- how long it takes to the come back
It was a client, he decided to late to make the change - now I am very exited :)

Headline Writing and Title Tag SEO in a Clickbait World - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: March 20, 2015
great video thumbnail for that topic, I usually use OG for Facebook titles, wich are completly different to the page title. Many people allways use the same title and tweet them (!) - i think that couldn't work well. But for CTR in SERPs, I take a look at them, when I rank and test some changes. But first the site needs to rank. A lot titles in SERPs here still look that way: Keyword | Keyword | Keyword - Brand/City - you can get a lot benefits and increasing CTR by writing a great title. It's pretty easy to write an SEO title like that, it's a lot hader to write a title in this clickbait-world. Hope your video would help, but first I watch the solar eclipse here (berlin)...
10 SEO Myths that Friggin' Tick Me OffBlog Post: March 09, 2015
Content is King is often used, but knowone really thinks about it. Many people don't believe it, often it is misunderstood. And of course, there is no black and white, there is no one and only thing you have to do.
Now a bit content: Content is King is used so often and I think the first guy was that one: (http://web.archive.org/web/20010126005200/http://w... - amazing, in germany there was no internet available in most (even big) citys in 1996, but content was king.
Rank #1 for Magic Keyword
I had a client last year, he stopped with SEO because he didn't Rank #1 at his "Magic Keyword" - it was positon 5 from nowhere (bevor SEO - no ranking on that topic).
Organic Traffic increased 900% (!) in 6 month (a lot of technical and onpage failures) and he said: "SEO has brought me nothing". A lot more customers - but they didn't came from position one of his magic keyword.
Thats SEO live i guess. We talked a lot to him, he simply didn't want to understand or even listen, it was just 4 positions to bad!
SEO is all trick
You could say: SEO is all a cheap trick. We do our cheap tricks and see websites get well in ranking, right?
Google Answers
hard discussion in germany. How would it be, if google would answer here as much as it does in US? A massseosuicide would go on i think.
I think I heard everything of these Myth. An interesting thing is, we can hear (here in germany) that linkbuilding is dead and SEO is only Linkbuilding...
Great post, like to say as usually.

I like this Quiz - thanks for that!so there I was wrong, but its Ok... btw - I have to admit, I worked with google translator a lot.
The Most Important Link Penalty Removal Tool: Your MindsetBlog Post: March 05, 2015
great metapher, but I can understand the webmasters. They allways read about links and how important they are for ranking. They worked and payed a lot for all these links and wont lose one. There are not so many (shown) examples of people wich get back on top in disavow 50% (or more) of there links.
But they exist...
The Marketing Department of the FutureBlog Post: February 25, 2015
hire a web developer who knows to include all of these functions rather than to hire both a web developer and an SEO
Simply not possible to hire a web developer who is perfect in SEO (even if you only think technical SEO) - I guess it's easier to hire an SEO who knows everything you need for your web development.
It's good if a web developer knows a lot about SEO, but I would never miss the knowledge of an SEO pro for sure. Things a developer may never think about can impact ranking.
But that's my opinion as SEO :)
I really think each of this Jobs - PR, Web Design, Web Development, SEO are so special, that it is always a great choice to have at least one specialist of each area in your team. PR or Designer trained by an SEO? For really great SEO work you need passion, I work in a web design agency, maybe one of our designers is interested in SEO. Same at the DEV Team. But both don't have enaugh time (not only to learn SEO) to see the SEO affect of some things they do. To realize that it has or could have (may be in future) an impact. They just have to do the job they are paid for.

10 Predictions for the Marketing World in 2015Blog Post: January 06, 2015
I thought that #2 "We will see Google test search results with no external, organic listings" couldn't be possible and commented that last year and I glad that we didn't saw that and (like you) hope we will never see it.
I would say:
In Europe Amazon will become a harder opponent for google in transactional queries (if we search somtehing to buy, we often search at amazon, more often than with google not only in my case, mostly caused by bad google shopping experience and much more)
The Massive Ranking Factor Too Many SEOs are Ignoring - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: December 26, 2014
A pretty big problem, for ,many client sites I don't have the autority to take a look on these factors. That they do matter (may be a lot more than we think) is clearly visible, when I watch the pages, where I have the autority and work on these factors. They don't struggle that much or move up and down. I have to work less for them... Have a nice 2015 everyone!
How to Avoid the Unrealistic Expectations SEOs Often Create - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: December 12, 2014
so many clients often say: I know that it would take a while. I know that it will need time.
But what is a a while or time? 3 Month, 6 Month, a year?
It is pretty hard to say what is really possible in 3, 6 or 12 month. Talk a lot to the clients, helps a lot. Tell them what you do and what your goals are in the next few month. After that analyse it with them and search some new goals for the next month. Never stop to communicate with them... Thats what I see.
@Tony Dimmock When something is impossible, it is easy to say no - but what if you like to say "maybe" ?

How Do I Successfully Run SEO Tests On My Website? - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: July 25, 2014
... Gianluca Fiorelli as allways a thumb up collector. You are right and I just want to give a thumb up. But as allways I can tell you a little inside view into german SEO.
Like AngelaMerkel told us a while ago - internet is #neuland wich means it is new for us - thats a bit funny in 2014. But SEO seems to be pretty #newland for us - because all these SEO tactics we would see as: old and not usefull is often used. Bought links, bad directorys, just get the link, comment spam... I know several sites with a link profile like this. And AB Tests? Her is what we do in general:
In general we don't do A-B Tests. Yeah right, there are SEOs maybe more than a handful wich do AB Tests and several webmasters (wich call themselfe SEOs) wich don't use it at all. They still buy Links on ebay and thats all. #Shame but we are #Weltmeister in other games :-)
I get 20 mails a month from "SEOs" wich want to sell Links to me, or buy links from me. In the case of selling - I ask what they do, what these Links would give to me - what do there Tests say about it? And they say: We don't do Tests - Links help - no matter what link.. trust me...
Dear Google, Links from YouMoz Don't Violate Your Quality GuidelinesBlog Post: July 23, 2014
I think we are talking about the internet, the internet is Links - links from one page to another. Isn't that how it works? You write something about a page and link to it - followed, because that is the internet.
Its unnatural to link out only nofollow.
I use nofollow only for Blog Comments (name Link) and when I write about a page I want to dissociate.

Does SEO Boil Down to Site Crawlability and Content Quality? - Whiteboard FridayBlog Post: July 11, 2014

But last week I was ill - so ill that I not even take a look at my Mails (yes possible / thatsway I watch the WBF today xD ) - When I looked at my mailaccount (I have special mail accounts for alerts) I got so many Mails... ouch!
Is Google Analytics Hurting your Business?Blog Post: June 16, 2014
dont get me wrong, I don't want to say Analytics is the best tool. I am one special case and I would say If you can try all tools ;)
Piwik is to slow for the Data Sets I need - so it's not Piwik in real, its the server where its installed. So they client hosts are the Problem. When I need Data for 360 Days I can go out, drink a coffee and came back and see - an Error, again. Anoying. I know thats not really a Piwik problem, but thats my case.
plus I need to check and install Updates - brr
I used Piwik for my private sites, fast and without errors - and my Hoster updates it for me. In that case it works great. But my clients sometimes have bad providers wich they dont want to leave...
I tried McDonalds and Burger King and now I decided for McD :)
Or I gave Piwik a try and I am not a Fan of this analytics tool for several reasons. I can understand what you mean, but I am not that sure, thats it is worth the hours of work to try other tools out, as long as I can get all that I want very fast with a tool I allready have.
Maybe I would work several hours just to say at the and - ok I allready used the best option. I tried more tools than Piwik and Google Analytics - atm Google is the best option of all tried tools. Maybe there is one wich fits better to me, I actually do not know :(
I work with analytics and piwik, and when I have to chose one it is analytics.
Of course it's not that easy to see inside and get great view inside to your visitors, but didn't you said "easy" is not a think that should us let decide about an analytics tool?
There is a point you can see here allready - the community, what google analytics has, here is the first person asking about adobe digital analytics. When I have a question how to get some usefull data out of analytics, I could find several posts with right answer.

I mean - it is possible that a webmaster is just linking all his sites together and he just didn't knows it better. For him it's good to know what not to do.
And everything what shows how google ranks websites has to be interesting for SEOs and Online Marketers.
( the greatest content with no link = invisible for google ;) )
I know a Domainhoster who tested it.
Fact was: many Linking Domains (>1000) with KW in anchor text, but also the brand (25% on the same c-block, only 4 c-blocks so: 250 linking Domains in each block). Additional ~1000 Links from Domains with a normal Linkprofile :-)
But, the site wich got the link was (like I told above) a website hoster. maybe google noticed that, and it was a hoster bonus... dont know that? Maybe the other 1000 Links brought the value and the rest was for nothing. He spoke from a ranking win - don't no more about that. Maybe there wasn't really one - I am not his SEO just a friend ;)

OMG really?? Huh...
Ok back to topic, like the idea of socials, for some clients I dont have any other chance but the socials are a great help. Special to watch who is following the big onces and which other sites do they follow, what they like, ... all these stuff is really helpful.
Have a great friday 13th

Washington, DC…On Tuesday, January 14, 2014, from 9 AM to noon, the National Archives National Declassification Center (NDC), in partnership with the Central Intelligence Agency's (CIA) Historical Review Program, hosts a symposium: "A City Divided: Life and Death in the Shadow of the Wall." Archivist of the United States David S. Ferriero will provide opening remarks. Symposium speakers will explore newly released and published declassified documents that reveal East and West Berliners' struggle for life and death in a divided city. The event is free and open to the public and press, and will be held in the William G. McGowan Theater of the National Archives Building in Washington, DC (email email@example.com to reserve a seat).
The National Archives Building is located on the National Mall and is fully accessible. Attendees should use the Special Events entrance on 7th and Constitution Ave, NW. Metro: Yellow and Green lines, Archives/Navy Memorial/Penn Quarter station.

With his iconic speech on June 26, 1963, President John F. Kennedy united the citizens of Berlin with the United States by stating that he too was a Berliner. In 1986, 24 years later, President Ronald Reagan declared in Berlin: "I do not come here to lament. For I find in Berlin a message of hope, even in the shadow of this wall, a message of triumph." Last fall, the NDC released more than 11,000 pages of newly declassified Berlin-related documents from1962 to 1986—the years between these two famous speeches. Symposium attendees will receive a free publication and DVD compilation of more than 1,300 of these documents, and an additional 1,140 documents will be posted online [www.archives.gov/research/foreign-policy/cold-war/berlin-wall-1962-1987].

Lady Gaga was to be allowed to hold a second concert in Manila on Tuesday night after state censors ruled her "provocative" act was within legal bounds, a city official said.
Officials who monitored the first show Monday found no violations of the permit terms banning nudity, blasphemy and lewd conduct, said Antonino Calixto, mayor of Pasay City, the district in the Philippines where the event was held.
"Admittedly, some of the statements and choreography were provocative but the content and presentation taken all together can be considered as part of an artist's expressions" that are protected by the constitution, he added.
"Therefore, the city government of Pasay sees no compelling or legal reason to disallow the second concert from proceeding," Mr. Calixto said in a statement.
As many as 20,000 fans were expected to attend the pop phenomenon's final Manila show, the same number at Monday's concert.
Conservative Christians in the Catholic-majority nation have been staging street protests daily to demand a government ban on the events, alleging some of Lady Gaga's songs are blasphemous.
One senior church leader said her show amounted to "devil worship."
Lady Gaga spoke out against her local critics at Monday's concert, declaring she was "not a creature of your government" before belting out her controversial song "Judas."
Her world tour, "The Born This Way Ball," has hit the headlines on its way through Asia, with an upcoming concert in Muslim-majority Indonesia denied a police permit for fear of violence from religious hard-liners.
Prominent Filipino lawyer Romulo Macalintal, one of those who sought to block the Manila concert, said he was resigned to the local government's ruling.
"They are the persons authorized by law and if that is their decision, I cannot do anything, I just leave it to God," he said.
Houston's final recording to be released June 5
Whitney Houston's final recording is scheduled for release next month.
The song, "Celebrate," is a duet with Jordin Sparks from Houston's last movie, a remake of the film "Sparkle."
The song debuted Monday on Ryan Seacrest's website and will be available June 5 on iTunes.
Ms. Sparks performed a tribute to Houston on Sunday night at the Billboard Music Awards, singing "I Will Always Love You" as Houston's daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, wiped away tears.
Houston's death in February at age 48 came as the singer was attempting a comeback and had finished filming "Sparkle." She drowned in a hotel bathtub in Beverly Hills, Calif. Authorities said her death was complicated by cocaine use and heart disease.
"Sparkle" opens in theaters Aug. 17.
Pitt puts to rest rumors of possible August wedding
Brad Pitt on Tuesday scotched rumors that his wedding to the other half of Hollywood's hottest couple, Angelina Jolie, would take place in August.
Mr. Pitt also said his partner would not join him on the red carpet in Cannes, France, later Tuesday for the premiere of the blood-drenched drama "Killing Them Softly" in which he stars as a hit man.
"She's not here right now. She's prepping for a movie that starts pretty soon," the 48-year-old actor, sporting shaggy blond-tinted hair and a goatee, told reporters after a press screening of Andrew Dominik's movie.
Asked if he planned to act in another film alongside Ms. Jolie, 36, he replied: "Actually, I'd love to."
"We actually really, truly have no date" for the wedding that the couple announced in April and which will come after six children and years of unwedded coupledom, he said.
Mr. Pitt and Ms. Jolie became close on the set of the 2005 film "Mr. and Mrs. Smith." They have three biological children together and adopted three others.
Mr. Pitt's new film features him as a contract killer working for a mob syndicate run like any major corporation, complete with brutal cost-cutting to cope with the recession.
"Killing Them Softly" is one of 22 films vying for the festival's coveted Palme d'Or top prize, to be awarded on Sunday.
Burnett to write memoir about her daughter
Carol Burnett's next book likely will inspire tears along with laughter.
The beloved actress and comedienne has an agreement with Simon & Schuster for a memoir about her daughter, Carrie Hamilton, who died of cancer in 2002 at age 38. The publisher announced Tuesday that Ms. Burnett's book, "Carrie and Me," is expected next April.
The memoir will be a "funny and moving" story of Ms. Burnett's relationship with her daughter, an actress and writer who appeared on stage in the musical "Rent" and on such television shows as "Touched by an Angel" and "The X-Files." Carol Burnett's previous books include "This Time Together" and "One More Time."
Jay-Z, Pearl Jam, Skrillex to perform at Philly festival
Pearl Jam, Skrillex and D'Angelo are among the performers scheduled to take the stage at the Made in America music festival Jay-Z is curating in Philadelphia in September.
Jay-Z will also perform, as will Janelle Monae, Passion Pit, Odd Future, Santigold, Afrojack, Calvin Harris and Rick Ross and his Maybach Music group.
The festival at Fairmount Park will feature 28 acts over Labor Day weekend. Tickets for the two-day festival are to go on sale Wednesday.
Jay-Z announced plans for the event last week atop the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Proceeds will benefit the United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey.
More performers will be announced later.

Model Checking PLC Software Written in Function Block Diagram
ABSTRACT The development of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) in the last years has made it possible to apply them in ever more complex tasks. Many systems based on these controllers are safety-critical, the certification of which entails a great effort. Therefore, there is a big demand for tools for analyzing and verifying PLC applications. Among the PLC-specific languages proposed in the standard IEC 61131-3, FBD(Function Block Diagram) is a graphical one widely used in rail automation. In this paper, a process of verifying FBDs by the NuSMV model checker is described. It consists of three transformation steps: FBD→TextFBD→tFBD→NuSMV. the novel step introduced here is the second one: it reduces the state space dramatically so that realistic application components can be verified. The process has been developed and tested in the area of rail automation, in particular interlocking systems. As a part of the interlocking software, a typical point logic has been used as a test case.

- "The formal verification of PLC programs has been tackled by a plethora of work in the last two decades [18]. Most work has been done with regard to the formalization of PLC code according to IEC 61131-3 [19], e.g. for ladder diagrams (LD) [20]–[22], instruction lists (IL) [23]–[25], function block diagrams (FBD) [26], and sequential function charts (SFC) [27]–[30]. More recently, also model-based approaches to the verification of PLCs gained interest [31]– [33]. "
ABSTRACT: The design of correctly implemented controls in material handling systems (MHS) is time consuming and cumbersome. The developer has to deal with an ever increasing complexity and heterogeneity of MHS on the one hand, but also with short development cycles and high demands to MHS on the other hand. For baggage handling systems (BHS) at airports, the error-free implementation of routing strategies is especially of importance, as these strategies are critical to safety. This paper proposes a compositional approach to the formal verification of routing in MHS. The approach is based on the theory of assume-guarantee reasoning, where proofs of the overall system are derived from proofs of subsystems. Moreover, the approach has been implemented in a tool that automatically carries out the verification. A real-world example is discussed in this paper, showing the benefits and scalability of the presented approach.IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering 09/2013; 10(4):900-915. DOI:10.1109/TASE.2013.2276763 · 2.43 Impact Factor
- "Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) are products which are more and more integrated in automated systems, even to perform critical functions; this explains why validation of PLC is gaining an always increasing interest. A possible solution to meet this objective is to apply formal verification techniques ([2]) on the specification of the control logic ([4], [13]) or the PLC code that implements this logic ([1], [5], [6], [9], [12]). These techniques are based on an exhaustive analysis of a state space which represents the specification or the PLC code according to the verification objective. "
Conference Paper: Enforcing I/O sequences for PLC validation purposes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Validation of the behavior of a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) by comparison of observed I/O se-quences to sequences built from a formal specification model requires that the consequences of the PLC I/O scan-ning cycle be considered. This paper proposes a method based on an enforcement technique to interpret observed I/O sequences so that the result of this comparison be meaningful.18th IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies and factory Automation (ETFA 2013), Cagliari (Italy); 09/2013
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
- "A tool, FBD2V, has been implemented to automatically perform this transformation, and a case study is used to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach. As in [7], the transformation approach is presented only for systems composed finally of basic FBs, so safety FBs of PLCopen are not supported. A formal verification approach of a safety procedure of a nuclear power plant written in FBD language is presented in [9]. "
ABSTRACT: Legacy systems that do not conform to the norms and regulations imposed by recent safety standards have to be upgraded to meet safety requirements. In this paper, we describe a methodology to upgrade legacy industrial applications based on the IEC61131 function block model without the need to redesign the whole application. We then describe an approach for automating the verification process of safety applications that is based on the use of the UPPAAL simulation and verification platform for embedded real-time systems. The meta-models of the source and target domains are presented and a transformation process of the PLCopen XML design specification to UPPAAL XML specification is described. A laboratory system is used as a case study to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed process.IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering, CASE 2011, Trieste, Italy, Aug. 24-27, 2011; 01/2011

The perfect sized pack for short tours and backcountry missions.
In bounds, out the gate, or full-on backcountry — the Osprey Kode 32 Backpack doesn't discriminate when it comes to a day out in the snow. This mid-sized ski pack holds your avy tools and other essential equipment for short tours or shredding the backcountry.
The Osprey Kode 32 was constructed from 420 denier nylon. It features an Airscape back panel that allows ventilation between you and the pack. For added comfort, the adjustable shoulder and chest straps have been molded from EVA foam. Meanwhile, compression straps and panel loading allow the pack to be configured according to what you need to carry. From ice tools to a snowboard, a dozen different arrangements are possible. Additionally, hip belt pockets allow easy access to your camera or phone. Everything is kept dry with an integrated rain cover. Gear carrying is for naught if you're parched by the time that you reach the peaks. For this reason, an external hydration pocket has been added in order to keep your thirst at bay.

Avalanche gear pocket
Great for touring
The Osprey Kode was made for touring and it absolutely excels at that. A thirty two liter is the perfect size for a day trip.
The main compartment is large and easily accessible behind the back panel. There are smaller, separate compartments throughout the pack which help to stay organized and the helmet cary is a must; however, it does cover a good top pocket. This pack has fantastic a-frame carry for skis and splitboards and carries one ice axe well.
There is a separate avalanche equipment pocket in the front of the pack that is well designed for organization of the the avy tools. This pocket however is a little bit two small for full size shovels when the pack is stuffed.
The Kode32 is a great touring pack; however, would not due for a ski patrol. Not enough room. It is also lacking when it comes to ski mountaineering. It holds only one ice axe well, and there are no extra gear loops. I highly recommend it for basic touring.
Go time!
Tour mode
The external helmet storage is a great feature of the Kode.
Cool one
Love the backpack, love the size and all extra comfy pockets.
But internal lining is wearing off where it contacts with the hydration pack. Also missing the helmet clips so I can not attach them.
How do you carry a shovel with this pack. Size for a guy 5'11" 160lbs?
Hey there! Here is a glimpse of the inside of this pack from the Osprey website. It has compartments for all of your backcountry gear.
Leta Kalfas, Vendor Rep
Hey there - Leta from Osprey chiming in - That's exactly right, Sierra. Mike, let me know if you have other questions! I'll keep a look out on this feed.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
i've had this pack for a little while now, and it truly is one of the best on the market. It's super comfy and has everything you need without much that you don't. It is very versatile as well, this pack can handle almost anything. The only problems I have with it are that when it's packed, there isn't much space in the avy pocket, and when you have a helmet strapped on, it gets in the way of everything, and makes it hard to do an A-frame with skis (but not impossible). Overall, get the pack, and then show it off to all of your friends.
That's me with the hoodoo red pack :)
great pack
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
used it to hike up into tuckerman last week. held my skis a frame style, poles,boots(my boots fit in the large compartment accessed thru the back of pack) helmet, goggles, 70 oz of water, gloves, extra shirt, jacket, thin puffy, socks, snack, ice ax, & crampons. had a sweet hike kept everything stable with all the straps. stable when skiing down. my feet are small (23.5)so i dont think that many people would be able to put their boots in the pack(would have to attach to bindings on skis). i got the s/m size fit good I'm 5'6
Holds all the essentials
Great for all-day backcountry trips. Holds everything I need, fits well on my medium-sized frame. Comfortably holds a snowboard vertically (seen in pic on the right).
Mega comfy and well thought out.
If you are looking for a good in bounds/out of bounds pack, I highly suggest this pack in this particular size. Pockets are well thought out and work well for me. They are the foundation for you organization and I'm psyched on the system I have with this pack. Mega comfy, I wear this everyday wether I'm riding lifts or not.
The reason I am most excited about this pack is because of Ospreys AMAZING customer service. I'm on my third season with the Kode and I've definitely beaten the bejesus out of this pack. I've broken the zipper in 2 spots and the edges/breaks of my skis have ripped holes in the sides from packing on the sides, A-frame style. I sent my pack in on Monday I will have it back this coming Monday...1 week turnover time. I've never experienced that with any other company. The All-Mighty Guarantee is legit and the person I have spoken with on customer service is eager to help and so friendly (Mary Jo, you ROCK!!!).
5' 8" 160 and I'm pretty sure I have size S/M
Almost A Really Good Pack
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I used this pack touring for a season and have decided to sell it and buy the Gregory Targhee 32.
The construction of the kode is phenomenal, its a well built comfortable pack which will serve you well for day trips. My issue with it comes from touring with snowshoes and a snowboard. When attaching a snowboard vertically, the bottom strap doesn't cinch tight so my snowboard flopped from side, making hiking unstable, on top of this, the way the snowboard sits on the bag makes it impossible to use the helmet carry system without having your helmet constantly bang into your head. The lack of a tight bottom strap also ment that I had to jury-rig a way to hold snowshoes securely on the pack. Another minor annoyance is that there aren't any compression straps on the bottom of the back, but that's a personal dislike, not a flaw in the pack.
Overall, I'd recommend the bag to anyone who skis or has a splitboard, but would advise people using the snowbard+snowshoe option to look elsewhere.
High Quality High Performance
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The title says it all. I've had this bag for 3 years now and have not had a single problem. The ski carrying options are great, I personally put them A-Frame. The pockets and features of this bag like the helmet netting are perfect for lugging your gear up the mountain. The bag itself has a rigid back and gives you some protection. All the straps also help to distribute the weight evenly on your back. Overall, this pack has outperformed my expectations
Solid daypack
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I got this for sidecountry/short backcountry trips to carry avy gear and an extra layer, as well as day hiking in the summer. It's been awesome! The frame makes the pack super stable even with skis and boots A-frame style for a muddy hike into Tuckerman's ravine. My friends with smaller frameless packs were jealous.
I got an osprey hydration system as well, which fits perfectly in the pack, and is held close to your back. The hose tube is "insulated", but it will freeze up in anything below about 25 degrees.
Helmet carry system is handy for keeping snow out of your helmet on the way up, but you can't access the avy tools pocket or the goggle storage pocket while your helmet is attached. Also, depending on the size of your helmet, you may not be able to strap the tips together to A-frame because the pack is quite narrow.
Hip belt pockets are great for storing a knife for quick access if needed, or small snacks. They also hold the extra foot of webbing strap for you skinny guys.
The goggle pocket on top holds a DSLR with a 35mm or small zoom perfectly, and I don't need to put a lens cap on because of the soft fabric. I'm still searching for the best way to carry a DSLR outside of the pack for quick-access shots...
My one major gripe is the cut of the avy tools pocket. There is no actual volume built into the pocket itself, so if you pack the main area full of gear, clothes, etc. it is nearly impossible to put anything in the avy pocket.
All-in-all a great product. I just hiked up Mad River Glen in a driving snowstorm that caked about an inch of ice on every surface of my body and pack, but the pack fabric kept any moisture from getting into my gear. I managed to fit a sleeping bag and tie a pad to the outside of the pack for the quick overnight, but wouldn't recommend this pack for regular overnight use.
When will additional M/L nitro green or black packs be coming in?
Kayla Weiser, Gearhead
Hi charlie,
As of right now we unfortunately do not have any more of those ordered to come in, sorry about that!
Boostin' in the Kode 32
This pack rocks. Ski it in the resort or backcountry, its wicked versatile. The ski carry is really good. The pack is nice and firm so ski carry works well even when it isn't packed full of stuff.
